Details are scarce, but it’s known the flick will start filming next year for its July 17, 2026 release date.

“When the opportunity came in, it was the phone call of a lifetime,” Holland said on Good Morning America in an interview on Wednesday. “It was reminiscent of getting the call about Spider-Man 10 years ago.”

He continued, “It’s an amazing thing for me. I’m super proud and I’m really, really excited.”

Holland Says He Doesn’t Know Much

Holland also claims he doesn’t know much.

“All I can say is that I’m incredibly excited, and, obviously honored, but that’s all I can say because, to be honest, that’s all I know.”

Nolan’s New Movie Could Be A Period Piece
